COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW FEATURING "ADAM FAITH " MAY 9TH 2018.

THE VERY BEST OF ADAM FAITH...EMI GOLD.
Tracks played...
What do you want / Poor me / Someone else's baby / When johnny comes marching
home / How about that / Easy going me / Don't that beat all / The first time
We are in love / A message to Martha / Cowman milk your cow.

The very best of Adam faith is a hard listen. His first four hits sounded similar and
his vocalising leaves a lot to be desired after about three tracks and there are sixty on
this album......however after saying this sometimes the arrangements were often
commercially amusing and interesting and the songwriters did their best in finding
easily remembered catchy songs for Mr Faith. He himself admitted he was no great
singer and when the time came he gave his recording career up. This album covers
all of his chart singles plus some B-sides. ******.

COLIN HOLES EASY LISTENING SHOW FEATURING " SANDIE SHAW " 1ST MAY 2018.

SANDIE SHAW...NOTHING COMES EASY...EMI. 4CDS)

Tracks played...
As long as you're happy,baby / Always something there to remind me / Girl don't come
I'll stop at nothing / long live love / Message understood / How can you tell / Run.
Puppet on a string / Tell the boys / Monsieur Dupont / Nothing comes easy.
Surround yourself with sorrow.

Over 100 tracks on this Sandie Shaw luggage release contains most of her recordings
dating from 1964 to 2004.  Quick sharp commercial records were her standby on most
occasions and the idea was a good one and was successful especially with the up-tempo
choices......however when it stopped her recording career continued with less
popularity. Sometimes her voice was a little sharp and a lot of the subsequent music
did not suit her. As a record of popular recordings through the Beatles era Sandie Shaw
held her ground with Dusty and Cilla.*******.

HAIRSPRAY.....FILM...DECCA RECORDS.
Tracks played....

Good morning Baltimore / It takes two / Miss Baltimore Crabs / I can hear the bells /
You can't stop the beat.

The film score of this hit show has a more film orchestrated beat than the stage
version. Somehow this works in the score's success and I find it a more
exciting version of the show. There are differences ,so if you prefer the
original stage version always.......don't bother with this version. *******.
